Anyone have suggestions on V-neck, A-line dresses that would show off a small waist?

I'm 5'3, 200lbs. Got a nice rack and a small waist. I feel like I'm overlooking what could be out there...

This is a sweetheart top but it def accentuates the waist.

I would say any style that has a lace up back. They can work WONDERS for a small waist. Look on Maggie Sottero's website.

Your David's pic- I tried that one on last night. LOVED IT! Teeny tiny waist and huge bell skirt. Super flattering! ( Not to mention, I can get the 16 and not the 16W and save some bucks). Figured I should look for some more before I pull the trigger. Love those Jasmines- I'm going to have to find a place where they carry that line!!

You can go to Brides.com and search through pictures - v-neck, a-line, fitted waist.

Here are few more

I have a small waist and large chest and the maggie dresses (with corsets) really supported me and emphasized my waist. I'm a size 18 btw if that helps.

then a few more

Justin Alexander dresses did the same on me.

Here are some from AlfredAngelo.com that you might like. And most cities have an AA store that you can try on all the styles at. Also, they don't charge extra for plus sizes.

Justin Alexander is a pretty small designer. My dress is from him and there are only 2 shops in my state that carry him, thank god for living in a big city.

The Justin Alexander and the Sottero-Midgeley would look AMAZING on a curvy, full-figured woman. I think that the more dropped waist would make you look like a bombshell!
